[Intro]

G C G D

G C G D7 G

[Chorus]

Carry my body

On down to the station

Bury me slowly

Under my favourite tree

Don't take me to the graveyard

Or the churches by the faint stars

Bury me slowly

D7 G

Where I belong

[Verse]

She went to see the woodsman

Well she's been down that road once before

Well this is it for certain, this is it for certain

This time her heart ain't going through that door

She bought Indian Rosewood

And watched the trees sway back and forth through the wind

She said "It's my turn for irony,"

D7 G

"Well I'm gonna leave in the same box you put me in."

[Chorus]

She said "Carry my body"

"On down to the station"

"Bury me slowly"

"Under my favourite tree"

"Don't take me to the graveyard"

"Or the churches by the faint stars"

"Bury me slowly"

D7 G

"Where I belong."
